i'm saving to the emulator itself. i hit the home button, and click the save icon then it gives me the "error opening directory" message.

Weird. If you followed my guide the save folders should be in the correct place. Tantric's emulators give you empty folders to maintain the proper structure so I don't see how it could go wrong. Maybe if you post the structure of your SD or USB I'll notice something. I can verify that the save feature works for both emulators. They are amongst the emulators that I've been using the longest.

Thank you for the excellent guide. I wish I could have found something like this years back when I built my first PC based MAME machine.

Added controller compatibility at the suggestion of robgee. Thank you sir! I though icons would be a nice touch. I also added the emulators HBC icons while I was at it

Nice touch. I just found out today that the Pro version of the Classic Controller doesn't work with Wii64 or WiiSX. I have only tried Wii64 (that's how I found out), but I read here that the same goes with WiiSX. Emulators were half the reason I bought the CC Pro. :(

Yeah...That's odd being an official controller. Third parties always seem problematic but you wouldn't expect that out of official Nintendo controllers. It will probably work with Tantric's ports seeing how his changelogs specifically mention adding additional Classic Controller support (Even though it's mentioned as 3rd party) and probably a few others that get occasionally updated. I wish a lot of the Wii emulators would be more regularly updated. :(

Don't you think you should mention that it doesn't work in your guide? If people go buy a CC for the PSX and N64 emulators, they should know not to buy a Pro one (at least until it gets fixed).

Done. Credit added in changelog too. :)

Very good tutorial :P I installed WiiSX to play Resident Evil 2. It runs perfectly but I can't hear the ingame voices at all :( And When I want to select a bios on my SD card from settings it says it doesn't find it...

WiiSX only uses one specific PSX BIOS - SCPH1001.BIN to my knowledge. I don't know if re-naming other BIOS to SCPH1001.BIN would work but you could try. Also the sound issue is listed on the compatibility chart:

Leon - Appears to run perfectly. Plays best with frame limit on, but dithering off in Dynarec. Claire - Can't hear characters voices, and freezes when you return to the wiisx menu.Runs at near perfect speeds.
